Although the smartphone market has been taken over by Android-devices and iPhones, BlackBerry is still a favorite among business travelers. Research in Motion has just released BlackBerry Travel to help keep track of all of your travels. Features include:
- The automatic trip scanning feature will automatically recognize itineraries that are emailed to you and push them to your BlackBerry
- Identify gaps in your travel (like a night out of town without a hotel room) and recommend hotels which you can book through your phone
- Automatically notify you when your flight is delayed or your connection changes
- Currency converter, weather for your destinations, and more
The app is free, but is also in Beta so don’t be surprised if it’s a bit buggy. You can find BlackBerry Travel in BlackBerry App World.
